Subject: [PATCH 12/15] bootm: factor out file detection into helper
Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2026 09:39:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260127084546.3751357-13-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260127084546.3751357-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

Having this function callable on its own will come in handy once we add
boot.image override support as that would need to recompute the file
type.
